Public Health Department,
Town Hall,
Ealing, W.5.
31st May, 1926.
To the Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors
of the Borough of Ealing.
Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to submit to you the Annual Report for
the year 1925 on the health of the Borough and on the work of
the Public Health Department.
This report is a Survey Report which is submitted every five
years, and is therefore larger than its four predecessors. In the
contents you will be able to recognise and appreciate the progress
in public health work to which you have given your encouraging
support in recent years.
As to future developments in public health activities these
will be concerned mainly with the extension of the whole public
health scheme to embrace the districts of Hanwell and Greenford,
which, it is expected, will be included in the Borough on the 1st
October of this year. While these developments will benefit
chiefly the added areas they cannot but benefit the Borough as
a whole.
In submitting this report I wish to express to the public
health staff my appreciation of their good work and my gratitude
for their unfailing loyalty.
I am, Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
THOMAS ORR,
Medical Officer of Health.
